Do you have Gender Desire?

Although it can be difficult to admit to friends or family, the truth is — many would like a certain gendered child. Gender Desire is a term for those who are wishing for a son or a daughter to add to their family. Although you are quite happy with either gender and love your children immensely, it doesn’t stop your desire to have your next pregnancy produce a little boy or a little girl.

Although we empathize with how sad you are feeling, we are happy that you have found us and are taking the first step to come to terms with your feelings. Gender Desire can turn into Gender Disappointment (GD) which is the sadness and other negative emotions that parents may feel when they learn that they are not having a child of the gender they would have preferred. GD can be very painful as you deal with the loss of your dreams for your family or are forced to confront difficult issues that may have led you to have a strong gender preference.

Know that we do not believe that you should be judged harshly for having or expressing these feelings. You can feel safe here sharing your GD thoughts, even if they are a little scary, and your GD journey as you work through your gender issues.

As raw and difficult thoughts and emotions may be shared on this site, we respec your feelings here and even empathize with them.
